graduate in pharmacy, of good moral
character, have a stock of goods exclu-
sive of liquors valued at not less then
$1,000, and he must not himself use intox-
lcaDts as a beverage. He must also give
bond in the sum of $1,000 for faithful
compliance with the law. Under the old
law sick men could get a permit
to buy liquor by applying to the
probate judge and paying him
a small fee. As these officials found that
the more permits they issued the greater
was their income, they naturally sympa-
thized with more invalids than the law
allowed. Now they are paid salaries, and
severe penalties are prescribed for them
if they grant permits to people who Wsnt
liquor merely for purposes of hilsrity. In
practical operation it has been found that
the trouble begins when the druggist sets
out to find twenty-fi five women who will
sign his Endorsement. In many places
this has been given up as an impossibili-
ty, and the liquor trade, by reason of the
paralysis Of the druggists, has come to a

BILE more than their share, and the new
law may strike something like an equita-

No one class of the citizens of this city is

vital concern in the manner in which the
public moneys are given ont in charity
and in which they are reduced. by fine
remlssiOns. The public have q right
to this information and no man who has
conscientiously discharged his duty will
shrink from the fullest publication of his
official actions. The Council that with
dew the delegated power to the Mayor
was composed of citizens thoroughly
identified with Fort Worth and who are
intelligent and patriotic men. Nothing
less is said of those who compose the
present Council, but in undoing the work
of their predecessors they face forcible
reason against such reaction, and they
will not be justified if that reason stands
unchallenged. In behalf of all the
people whose interests must be affected
by an abuse of power, THE GAZETTE
suggests publication of the record, that
all may know whether such abuse existed
or not. Mayor BrOiles himself could
make no more convincing answer to the
allegation than to demonstrate Its falsity
by a publication of the record of his dona-
tons and remissiOns.

to give Boston the opportunity of sitting
in judgment on him again, nor of jump
ing on him with both feet, and Boston
feet, which he declares are VIGOROUSLY

he declares he is only one of many who
